Assuming exponential varying properties in the radial direction and constant Poisson’s ratio, a closed-form analytical solution based on the elasticity theory is obtained to elastic analysis of disks made of functionally graded materials (FGMs) subjected to internal and external pressure. Following this, radial displacement, radial stress, and circumferential stress profiles are plotted for different values of material inhomogeneity constant, as a function of radial direction. The displacements and stresses distributions are compared with the solutions of the finite element method (FEM) and comparison with the corresponding numerical solution indicates that the proposed solution has excellent convergence and accuracy.
